this week's short. hoping for a miracle to happen tomorrow.

anyway, going brunei on 13th jan. selene's chalet on 8-11th. might not be able to make it. going to eat hotel buffet with guan and bro. haven decided which one yet. shall blog on mon after adventure with lek the idiot.

took leave today. celebrated birthday with selene and bryan. at 12am, theres a mystery i cant solve. i received a couple of messages and calls from guan. the phone wasnt in silent mood. i placed it under my pillow. i didnt wake up neither did any of my bunk mates. deep sleep?

today's good. but not perfect. just one sms short to perfection. i actually hope to receive a birthday greeting from her. oh well, i understand she's busy. its not over yet, and i'll still be waiting until 2359. haha. i want to have dinner with her. probably 2 hours will do. maybe i should wish for that next year.

oh ya, i read this book written by a priest. i agree. i've been praying to GOD for something good to happen. of course it concerns her. GOD's not ignoring your prayers people, he's saying NO at times. so you'll have to keep trying to convince HIM. thats what i'm trying to do.

this weekend will be dinner with bro,guan,lek i think.

okay. good night!

this driver course is so long, but yet, theres nothing for me to do! insufficient resources. everyday go there is to eat sleep and watch korean shows. there isnt really any purpose. yea i even tried reading books. apparently, i passed everything that's needed of me in 1 attempt, except for hsp. so, i have to wait for those who haven. now waiting for final practical test to get license. but there's a shortage of tester. and i dont mind failing. enjoy the holiday mood there.

anyways, yesterday night was horrible.

wow. AWOL in transport hub is only 1 confinement, rather than 1 day in DB. cool.

last sat went to airport to give bro a surprise. cos i was in camp on wed her actual birthday. so guan decided that we find her on sat. guan gathered the info on where brother was on that sat. she was sending her dad off. first i drove to guan's house to fetch that fat ass, who DEMANDS me to drive in to her lobby rather than she walk out to the guard room. then went to search for bro in the airport. coincidentally saw zhi ming leaving for brunei there! so we asked zhi ming to ask where the hell is brother saying he saw her at the airport, which he didnt obviously. then tada, we found bro. had a SHORT talk then sent them home. cos brother had a restrictive order from her empress dowager .lol.

yesterday, went to changi area BARK cafe for bass outing. food was okay, played a little pool after so long. had a nice talk. after that sent them home and came back to the same area. to have supper with guan and bird at changi v. after that went home at 2 plus. today went for mass then had a wedding mass.

yesterday during the bass chat. someone said a sentence that struck me. everything goes wrong or very well after confession to the person u like. wow, how true for now. but i dont want this to happen!

and yea, my greatest regret til now, is not getting into tj. say serious

Everything doesn't seem to be as perfect as it looks. Thought that going to gym daily wld be good. who knows, the gym's facilities are super limited. Thought that going for class 4 driver course would be a breeze. who knows, SAF has so many safety issues with driving. Thought my instructor was friendly and slack, who knows, he knows nothing. Thought discipline will be slack there, but who knows got plenty of ah bengs with NO discipline. This i have to elaborate. Fall in late,and let others wait for 20mins. Rowdy behaviour, irritating barbaric, uneducated, uncivilised dogs. honestly, i dont look down on people with no/low education level. its because their character is unacceptable. still wanna be cocky. theres this guy that threaten to bring down his gang and stuff. too bad he pushed my friend. my friend has decided to go all the way up, to get his ass kicked. These people should just go DB for their NS.

The only reason i'm having a STAY IN course that let you book out on SAT afternoon, is because of these pests that wanna AWOL (absent without official leave), only retards will do, cause 1 day AWOL= 1day DB. once JC people goes to DB, no more local uni placing for you. Besides AWOL, they like to fight outside, or take MC. let them have nights out also wanna come back late and deprive the rest of their privilege. Best of all they are cocky.

One of the few things thats quite enticing is that i can watch videos on my sis's ipod and catch up with the world. lol. i finished one whole series in a week. thats like 17 hours of watching. only shows how much free time we have. not to mention some of the time is used for sleeping early and gyming. platoon outing later. probably going out with guan for ma la huo guo tomorrow! ok but meanwhile, i'm packing my room.

My tuition kid didnt do too well but improved alot. yeap. thats more or less about my week.

Mon booked in back to Ngee Soon camp. went there straight after driving and tuition. had chong pang nasi lemak. quite good i must say.  Ngee Soon's super dirty, cause its NS-Men's bunk. left there for Sembawang camp, thinking that i've left hell, since we've been through heaven like bunks,cookhouse food in kahtib camp during my course. Who knows, Sembawang is as dirty. Cigarette butts inside cubicles, its like living with rifle coy people. the theives steal even the most unexpected stuff like cup noodles,shampoo, or whatever thats in your cupboard. omg. although my bunk mates are quite friendly though with plenty of tatoos, but its still weird though. 

Learning basic stuff like highway code/ Basic Theory Test in Civilian world can be an easy task for many. but looking at most trainees there, its really surprising how they fail. most of them fail not because they're dumb, its cause their english fail them. they have to basically match words in textbook to question. like MAXIMUM speed limit. this is how they learn. Anyways, driving course is tiring. Studying easy, basic stuff being boring enough, they give you 2 tea breaks a day other than meal times. PLUS plenty of small breaks here and there. Great chance to grow fat.

Mon to Wed had alot of free time at night, but didnt have nights out, i was super pissed. totally not efficient. causing me unable to go out to teach tuition. He was having exam that week! it was quite important. his mum seems quite pleased with his paper 1 on mon cause he told her that he was confident of passing. but paper 2, he told me, sorry, high chance of failing. woo. partially thanks to my company.
whether it'll continue next year or not depends on his results now.

Alright! main event of the week! i passed my class 3 driving test (surprisingly). honestly. i didnt expect to pass. but it was sorta TYCO. 18 points. 20 points is fail already. i committed lesser of my previous mistakes though. circuit wasnt much of a prob, cause its a test on skill, not much of safety. road driving was scary. probably because time is running out, i was lucky, the examiner was also tired. he fell asleep in the vehicle. lol. but. he shortened the exam route, and i thought, fail already, going back to test centre. wow, it really helped me man. less chances for mistakes. only major one was me cutting lane causing evasive action of other vehicle, which is i cut in lane too abrutly. i do that all the time though. then the others are,  too much brakes and too much acceleration. I was in uniform, which my instructor at driving centre say, will help me have a higher chance to pass. but first time driving with boots, thick soles i cant really feel the pedals. but yea, it really helped i guess. YAY.

i told the whole world about me passing. but someone sent me a 3 word message with a dot made my day. haha okay congrats. LOL. i want her to be my first passenger though.

today's packed. going off for driving at 1230. not sure if i can go for driving test on thurs, cause i'm changing unit. after lesson is tuition. after that is book in already. yesterday went to my father's friend's house . cause she dont want her tvS anymore. one is 29 inch, the other 42. i thought its worth alot. until bryan told me this morning. CHEY. my father still wants to put it in my small, squeezy home. didnt have time to go gym.

what i gave her was around 100 bucks worth of moon cakes. its defintely not the best around, but its one of the best. if i am willing to get such stuff for her, although its a little random. but still, its because i feel she's THE one. yeap. she's THE one.

sun was live firing. the bombs fired were loud. no joke. loud. after that moved over to ngee soon camp. was notified to go for class 4 driving course. lol.stay in at sembawang camp, lessons at kaki bukit. visiting too many camps man. these few weeks got some ASEAN shooting comp. so yea, pretty slack. next week driver course already. no more hell. almost daily gyming. every week nights out, CONFIRM book out, no restriction from anyone. shiok. tomorrow tuition and probably going gym and town. sun tuition again plus driving lesson.

super short 24hours book out. tomorrow have to book in early to prepare for live firing on sun. then followed by a 2/3week confinement cos of some shooting comp that my company's helping out. anyways. this week was horrible. super tiring. outfield only slept for 3 hours. before that was more and more physically demanding stuff. I was unlucky enough to get selected for the most physically demanding position of my det. keep running and digging holes while the rest does easier stuff. oh well. hope it helps me lose weight.

the only reason the slacker here haven down pes is because, i wanna make use of army to slim down. anyways. sat went to watch f1 with hulk cos the ticket came a little too late. a few people cannot make it, some people wouldnt go even if i asked them. CONFIRM. but anyways, had fun. food there was exp but i think we had $80 on food, yet free. irony, but true. had a little beer, hope that wouldnt make my tummy bigger. sun super rushed. after church was tuition then driving then prepare for book in, didnt really have time to on the comp.

alright, tuesdays with morrie is good. maybe its the words the writer uses, or maybe it is really true. andrew told me he cried. lol. big man cry reading a book. must be a joke right. maybe his imagination is better.

OH, i'm supposed to book in one hour eariler, cos i fall in later one min this morning. lol. overslept even though i slept for 10 hours. bunk mates tried to wake me up, but i only woke up 4 mins before fall in. lol. must be guan middle of the night that call la.

ok, blog again in weeks.

Alright, my first post on livejournal, although i've posted on guan's blog before. i'm switching because i like the locked post function in life journal. anyways, i'm still me with a url change.

this week was super hectic, everyday with helmet on. busy with tuition and driving test's coming up. not sure if i can get off. i'll try to upload some pictures onto facebook and here. last week cant upload pics onto facebook. shall try again this week. alright, got lesson tomorrow. bye!
